Ok, but you should understand that a spade has to be called a spade.

EFFC no invite Sanusi for questioning over his love of throwing Tax payers money as if the money belongs to him, now, the invited a renowned Professor who Re capitalized Nigerian banks and made it stronger by employing thousands of unemployed Nigerians, which the present Gov is laying off with his harsh policies.

see as una dey yab a whole big man

Is it normal to be granted bail without being arrested at some point?

On an altogether different note, the EFCC appears to have gone into overdrive with the spate of activities recorded so far since the beginning of this year. Anyone care to shed some light on what informs this previously unseen gusto?

After many hours of interrogation by its operatives, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, admitted the former Central Bank Governor, Prof Charles Soludo, to administrative bail Thursday night.

But the former Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate in Anambra State was asked to report back to the anti-graft agency on yesterday morning for further questioning. It was not clear if the renowned economist honoured the invitation after being asked to go home.

Also, the Imo State Finance Commissioner, Deacon Okafor John and Accountant General, Haeche-George, who were arrested over alleged N45 billion loan from Zenith Bank and diversion of local government funds were granted bail.

A source in EFCC confirmed the granting of administrative bail to the former CBN boss on certain conditions, which he did not elaborate.

One of the conditions for granting him temporary freedom was that he should surrender his diplomatic and international passports to the EFCC and to produce two sureties who should not be below the rank of permanent secretaries or directors in the Federal public service.

The source said, “Yes, it is true Soludo was released on bail around 9pm on Thursday but was asked to report back on Friday morning.

Comrade GARRI (x7), as you often lead us to believe on these boards; nah by the special grace of Jah!

EFCC is a toothless bull dog.

Bribes exchanges hands between two Nigerian public figures with audio and video evidence to prove. One of the key actors said publicly that EFCC was fully involved in the bribing operations and till date our zealous Anti-corruption agency is still in search of evidence which is already in public domain. If they can't locate the evidence of bribery "transactions" that took place few metres away from Aso Rock how will they find the one in Australia? EFCC just want to appear busy maybe to justify their 2013 budgetary allocation.

SlyIg: Some Nigerians,even Saharareporters still believe corruption would stop in Nigeria. How could someone believe that Soludo can be arrested! I didn't even bother reading a bullshit when i saw it. Even if he was arrested,what would they do to him. Abeg ...

Me too. I didnt even bother to read. Kai, Nigerians! smh

Okorocha, Soludo, theodor orji, orji uzor kalu are all thieves. Yet the gullible backward people in those states they rule celebrate them. They are clamouring for secession. If they're given independence sef, are these not the people who would rule them?

As a state, there is no development of any sort, would there be anything better if they become a nation?

The igbos need to open their eyes and cease to support their corrupt leaders. Once you engage in an aguement with them, they resort to violence, yet they can't use their strength to protest against their corrupt politicians.

Anyway, if EFCC decide to investigate properly, the thief will be found guilty. And I hope EFCC would investigate other equally corrupt ibo leaders.

Typical liar.

Stone throwing starts. Ducking from the expected missiles....

Any Igboman or woman who continues to fool him/herself working for niGGAria and ignored the Biafran cause, will be on his/her own when those nigerians come looking for him/her for image tarnishing.

Whether you like call yourself a professor, a military,politician or businessman/trader, niGGAria will always use and abuse you and the fact that it hasn't happened to doesn't mean it's not gonna get to you.

ONLY A FOOLISH & BLIND IGBO WILL KEEP ON THINKING THAT HE/SHE WILL GET A FAIR TREATMENT IN NIGGARIA.

mtcheeeeeew.......who is this non-plused fool. Soludo is innocent as far as i am concerned

Sunny_bobo: Former Governor of the Central Bank (CBN), Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has denied reports that he was arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Thursday, insisting that rather, he was invited by the agency to make clarifications on some issues on a matter under investigation.

However, a source at the commission said Soludo was granted administrative bail and was allowed to go home, having been grilled for several hours by the commission’s team of investigators.

The source said his international and diplomatic passports were seized after he had produced two sureties at the level of Permanent Secretaries or Directors.

The source added: “But that is not the end because he is also expected back for further interrogation.

“I don’t have much details on the other 12 ex-staff of CBN and the Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company who were linked with the scam; it is not as if the suspects are here.

“But a number of them have been questioned over time and they are both from NSPMC and CBN, it is not as if they are in our station at the moment.”

But a close aide of Soludo denied that his passports were seized or that he was granted any administrative bail, or that he provided any sureties.

A statement by his media office Friday said the former CBN Governor voluntarily went to the EFCC office to honour the commission’s invitation.

The statement signed by Bonaventure Melah said Soludo was neither arrested nor escorted to EFCC office by operatives of the commission as was reported.

“We want to put it on record clearly that the media reports that Professor Chukwuma Soludo was arrested by the operatives of the EFCC in Abuja is totally false or to say the least written in error.

“The fact of the matter is that the EFCC wrote a letter to Prof. Soludo inviting him to their Abuja office on the 10th of January 2013. EFCC’s invitation letter to Prof. Soludo was dated 20th December 2012.

“Soludo was abroad attending to several international engagements when the letter was sent to his aides. As a law-abiding citizen of the country, Soludo returned to Nigeria in the New Year and honoured EFCC invitation on January 10th as requested.

“He voluntarily went from his home to EFCC office on Thursday. He was neither arrested nor escorted by any operative of the Commission.

“The EFCC letter of invitation to Soludo states that: ‘This Commission is investigating a case in which the need to obtain certain clarifications from you has become imperative.’

“It was a two-paragraph letter which also indicated date and time for the meeting between Prof. Soludo and officials of the Commission,” the statement added.

The Guardian yesterday learnt that Soludo alongside others were quizzed by the anti-graft agency on the processes adopted in handling the contract and not on any alleged bribery.

A top official of the anti-graft agency, who pleaded anonymity, disclosed that the issues of alleged contract bribery did not come up during the interrogations, rather the agency was looking at the processes adopted in awarding the contract.

According to the official, Soludo made some clarifications on the issue on Thursday and was allowed to go home.

On how contract for currency adoption or printing is being awarded, a top official of the apex bank said that the first step is for the President to give approval, after which CBN gives the job to the Nigerian Minting and Printing Company or any other printing company. The minting and printing company will now source for polymer from Securency.

“CBN does not award contract for such job nor has any direct contractual arrangement with Securency. So there should be no link between CBN and the Australian polymer company’, the official said.

The decision to look into the polymer deal was triggered by a petition by Human and Environmental Development Agenda, headed by Olanrewaju Suraju, demanding the investigation and possible prosecution of those involved in the alleged contract scam.

Sources also indicated that other top management staff of the CBN who had worked during Soludo’s tenure were also picked and are currently being held alongside other ex-staff of the Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company.

However, all efforts to get the identity of other detained suspects proved abortive, as no one was willing to volunteer information. Sources also stated that the commission had been conducting discreet investigations on the contract scam before Soludo’s eventual invitation, adding that as a prelude, several officials of the NSMPC and the CBN had been quizzed.

Ahead of the 2010 Anambra governorship election in which Soludo contested as the governorship candidate of the PDP after a protracted legal battle that terminated at the apex court three day to the election, the issue of the alleged polymer note bribery allegation was levelled against Soludo by some of his political opponents. This followed a report by an Australian newspaper that there was a global investigation on Securency and its agents all over the world which revealed that the agents must have bribed public officials of countries that adopted polymer.

In an exclusive interview with The Guardian, Soludo said: “CBN under my leadership never awarded any contract to Securency. I was not aware and did not know of anybody who may have been given money for anything. I would be surprised if any such thing happened.”

Hello, besides hate and jealousy, nothing else can make you say this when you know very well that your opinion does not count here.

Let assume he was arrested, haven't you heard of one been "wrongly arrested", in as much as I'm not holding any brief for Prof. Soludo, to me he remains innocent until proven otherwise and if you have any scruples, you'd agree with me else not, austerity will judge us.

Prof Soludo is a clean guy. He can never be arrested, I knew that the Yoruba pepper sh1t news papers was making it up and now that Guardian has said it the way it it.

This is all fight for 2015. Soludo for president come 2015 !
